Dulce de leche 焦糖牛奶

I have heard about  DDL Dulce de leche ( you can learn more from here) long time ago but I can't try as it was not easy to obtain full cream condensed milk last time. Anyway, after I received the F&N full cream sweetened condensed milk , i immediately try to make DDL at home.

F&N Full Cream Sweetened Condensed Milk & Rose Shape Japanese Condensed Milk Bread 全脂炼奶

It is rarely to get sweetened condensed full cream milk in Malaysia currently. I was glad to accept the invitation to try out the F & N new product Full Cream Sweetened Condensed Milk when the company invited me for the product review.

For generations, F&N Sweetened Condensed Milk was an essential ingredient in the kitchen which many Malaysians grew up fondly with. An integral ingredient when having a chocolate malt drink at home or teh tarik at the mamak’s, the F&N Sweetened Condensed Milk is part and parcel of our Malaysian culture and heritage.

F & N Dairies (Malaysia) Sdn.Bhd. recently re-introduced the F&N Full Cream Sweetened Condensed Milk. People who grew up appreciating quality and premium products are now able to rekindle sweet memories with the goodness of F&N Full Cream Sweetened Condensed Milk - The good Old Days are now The Good New Days.

Kluang Mooncake 居鑾月餅

Do you know this famous mooncake from Kluang 居銮 ( a small town located at the state of Johor in Malaysia) ? I also recently know this mooncake. According to Johorkaki, Yuen Fatt 源發餅家was the first bakery shop to introduce the Shanghai style of mooncakes in Malaysia. And they shaped the Shanghai mooncake in an unique way that look like rugby ball for me, but some said it look like a mouse, a fox or fish. When my mom first look at this mooncake, she said it look like tortoise ^_^ (For Chinese, tortoise is a good symbol of long life). Anyway, i didn't get a chance to try the real Kluang mooncake. So i have to do it myself according to the taste that i read on few website. The outer pastry as described is melt-in-mouth type, immediately i think of my pineapple tart's pastry.

Japanese Condensed Milk bread 日式炼奶面包



I rarely appear on my FB, so I don't know what is happening in there, unless my FB friends link that to me (Take this opportunity to say sorry to whom sent me the friend request, I didn't responded due to I don't update my FB). Usually I got to know the latest hot topic especially on new baking items from my Chinese blogger friends. Example like this popular Japanese condensed milk bread. Since I have all ingredients on hand, quickly make it for the next day breakfast. You should use Hokkaido condensed milk (if you have) to get the closer taste to original recipe which come from a Japanese website. But I just use sweetened creamer that we use in our daily Milo drink.
